BELL: No Better Place to Continue Lucky Streak Than Vegas

T.J. Bell on Racing in Las Vegas: "We've had a lot of strong runs lately and are coming off our third top-10 in the last five races with our 10th place finish in New Hampshire. There's no better place to continue our lucky streak than Las Vegas. It's my home State track and I'll have a few friends and family in town, so I'm really looking forward to having another strong run. The guys at TRG Motorsports all deserve to be running in the top-10 every week and I believe that we'll have another shot at it this weekend. We're taking one of our best trucks to Las Vegas, and I'd love to leave Las Vegas with another top-10 to add to our stat book." TRG's Truck Choice for Las Vegas: T.J. Bell's Crew Chief, Butch Hylton, is taking chassis number 001 to Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Qwik Liner Las Vegas 350 on Saturday evening. This chassis was the first complete body and chassis in the TRG fleet that was built by Kevin Harvick Inc., in association with Chevrolet. This truck has only competed in one event this year. It saw its first laps at Nashville Superspeedway where Bell qualified 15th and finished 19th after being caught up in someone else's wreck. T.J. Bell on His Las Vegas Ride: "I can't wait to get back in that truck. The guys did an unbelievable job getting that truck ready for the race in Nashville and we were a top-10 truck all race long but unfortunately someone got impatient and made some stupid moves that took us out of contention. We still managed to finish 19th, but we're hoping to finish better than that this weekend in Las Vegas. We know that we have the truck to do it, and that's what these guys deserve. They have been working long hours lately and they deserve another solid top-10 finish."
